Our overview of Fleet and features covers compact 12–16 seater limo buses through to 20–24 seater luxury party coaches. Every size has a role: smaller limo buses for intimate groups, larger coaches for big celebrations that want a dance floor and bar area without leaving the vehicle.
Typical capacities: 12–16 seater limo buses for tighter, energetic groups; 16–20 seater party buses that balance space with atmosphere; and 20–24 seater luxury coaches when you need a full nightclub-on-wheels experience for larger groups.

Smart planning saves money. For peak dates (weekends, prom season and bank holidays) book early; consider mid-week or daytime hires for lower rates. Split costs by sharing across friends, and weigh options like booking a party bus for the outward leg and an MPV for the return. If your group is large, sometimes two smaller buses are cheaper than one oversized coach.
Trust and safety are paramount. Choose providers with verified insurance, regular vehicle maintenance and professionally trained chauffeurs. Booking via a trusted platform lets you compare prices, read verified reviews and check vehicle specifications in one place — avoiding hours of searching across multiple websites or social channels.
Insider tip: when arranging pick-ups in Clapham, request a named pick-up point on Clapham High Street or a layby near Clapham Common to keep logistics simple for guests and drivers. Coordinate with your venue about drop-off and timed arrivals: a 15–20 minute buffer reduces stress and keeps your booking punctual. If venues in Battersea or Balham have restricted coach access, plan a short walk from a nearby drop-off to avoid fines and delays.
